TP-Link TL-SG1024D TP-Link 24-Port Gigabit Desktop/Rackmount Switch

TL-SG1024D greatly expands your network capacity, enabling instant large files transferring. So, power users in the home, office, workgroup, or creative production environment can now move large, bandwidth-intensive files faster. Transfer graphics, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files across the network instantly. The TL-SG1024D provides an easy way to make the transition to Gigabit Ethernet. All 24 ports support auto MDI/MDIX, no need to worry about the cable type, simply plug and play. Moreover, with the innovative energy-efficient technology, it can save up to 20%* of the power consumption, making it an eco-friendly solution for your business network. When a computer or network equipment is off, the corresponding port of a traditional switch will continue to consume considerable amounts of power. TL-SG1024D can automatically detect the link status of each port and reduce the power consumption of ports that are idle. Ideally, shorter cables would use less power because of less power degradation over their length; this is not the case with most devices as they will use the same amount of power across the cable regardless of whether it is 10 or 50 meters (32.8 or 164.0 feet )in length. The TL-SG1024D analyzes the length of the Ethernet cable connected and adjusts the power usage accordingly, rather than keeping the power consumption in a conventional solution.
